We talk to hundreds of people every year who have Illinois workers’ compensation claims. While they all have unique situations, we do get a lot of similar questions. The most common one is what is my case worth? That’s a good question and one we are happy to answer if we can. The truth is […]
In my line of work, I’ve learned not to be bothered by much. There’s no point and acting emotional isn’t a good quality for an attorney. That said, not much pisses me off more than those people who, as a marketing tool to help insurance companies, talk about how our legal system in Illinois heavily […]
If you have suffered a work injury in Illinois, it might seem ideal to look for the best workers’ compensation lawyer in the state. So how do you go about doing that? The good news is that you don’t need to worry about finding the single “best” attorney because, quite honestly, we don’t believe there […]
A caller to my office last November was seeking “the best Chicago medical malpractice law firm.” There’s no such thing, but there are a handful of elite ones and I connected him with one of those. He saw their website and incredible track record of success and was impressed by them. He called me the […]
There are a limited number of locations in the state of Illinois for disputes involving work injury claims. One of these locations, called a hearing site, is in Wheaton in DuPage County. The address is 421 N. County Farm Road, which is the DuPage County Government Center. Your hearing location is where your case will […]
One of the most invasive surgeries you can have is a lumbar (back) or cervical (neck) fusion. It involves a severely injured disc that is repaired by literally putting hardware in to your body. While you can live a productive life after (Peyton Manning has had a cervical fusion) it’s a long road to recovery […]
I have a couple of kids who are old enough to know better now, but when they were young they’d put anything and everything in their mouths. My kids were normal babies. It makes sense that young ones are curious about the world and want to feel and taste things. Sometimes it’s gross, but it […]
Medical malpractice lawsuits can be tough cases, but when a doctor or other health care professional seriously injures a patient, we believe in doing everything we can to hold that person or entity responsible. As a client, there is much that is in your hands, especially at the start of a case. It is up […]
If you are looking for information on wrongful death lawsuits, then you probably suspect that negligence was to blame for the death of a loved one. You might be able to sue on behalf of your family member who passed away, forcing the defendant to pay for their wrongdoing. We know it’s a very difficult […]
How would you react if a commuter jet crashed every week and killed everyone on board? You would be outraged, and so would the entire country. This is essentially what’s happening with the rising number of trucking accidents across the United States, but not many people are talking about it. Fatal truck accidents are happening […]
I had a very nice call with a gentleman who was looking for a Chicago medical malpractice lawyer who would not charge a fee unless they win the case. I explained to him right away that nobody charges a fee in those cases and if they do want you to contribute money for expenses then […]
One of the most common phone calls we get are from people whose kids have been injured in a daycare. As a parent myself, I get why these callers are so upset. You trust your kids to be taken care of and something bad happens to them. For whatever reason, it seems like many of […]
Workers’ compensation is paycheck replacement and other benefits for employees who are hurt on the job. Each state, including Illinois, has its own set of laws on the books that creates this system of compensation and makes it mandatory for most employers. The way it works is that employers carry workers’ compensation insurance. When an […]
One of the best things a lawyer can do is show the ability to relate to his or her clients. When I’ve been in that situation myself it helps me relate better to callers. For example, years ago I tore my rotator cuff. When I talk to people with the same injury it helps me […]
